It's the face of Manjari Fadnis who is the second leading lady in this Abbas Tyrewala debut directorial venture and is already being touted as the surprise package in the newest romcom to hit the screens.
"And to think of it, I was the last person to be signed for the film, much later than all other major characters had come on board", says Manjari who is self admittedly quite nervous as the D-day has arrived.
"I had to go through a stringent process though to be a part of the film", confesses Manjari who had made her debut as the leading lady with Rok Sako To Rok Lo four years back, "I am told that there were quite a few girls who had auditioned for the role. Guess my hard work, luck and last but not the least, patience, eventually paid off."
Patience is one virtue that Manjari has certainly demonstrated since apart from Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Naa and I Am 24 (which she has completed), she is waiting for the response to JTYJN.
As per sources, she plays the love interest of Imran Khan who has Genelia for company as his bum-chum pal. It is in the course of their journey that Imran and Genelia come closer which results in a love triangle of sorts with Manjari involved.
"Let me not comment on the film's storyline as it is for you to check out", teases Manjari.
"I am not in a hurry to sign any films as Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Naa is a big project", says Manjari whose Bengali film Faaltu recently won a National Award for itself, "I didn't want any inconsequential film to arrive in the time when I believe that Jaane Tu... would help shape my career in a big way.
I am waiting for the big day which is now just a few hours away and looking forward to how audience and industry reacts." -Joginder Tuteja
